Elizabeth Dickson Gibson

Elizabeth Dickson Gibson (16 May 1868 – 13 July 1961) was an Australian artist.

Early life Gibson was born on 16 May 1868 in Ipswich, Queensland, the daughter of bank manager James Gibson and Anne Bush Blair (née Copeland). The family moved to Manley, Brisbane when her father retired. She was taught art by prominent local artist Godfrey Rivers at the Brisbane Technical College from 1899 to 1905.

Returning to Australia in 1947, Gibson's work was almost unknown in Australia, despite recognition of the work of contemporary female expatriates. This is probably because of her shyness and her Queensland background.

Her work is now in several State galleries, the National Gallery of Australia and in private collections. She died in a Brisbane convalescent home on 13 July 1961 and was cremated.
